• BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    I have a feeling you wouldn't want it but LO has 48RG wooden wing nut molds that come out to a perfect 50 once dressed up. I've had one since I started and really like it. Pretty sure they're like $50. Edit - last I checked they came in rounded or flat and were a 7x48 mold or something close.

    Is he out of leaf right now or does he just not list it on his site?

    LAT SEC. I liked the regular line but wished it had more oomph, this nailed it.

    BOTL Weight Loss Thread

    Alright so here's a layout of what my diet/leg day looks like right now. I want to note that I was eating more carbs but I'm pulling back on them to lose water weight. Carbs are far from the devil they get painted out to be they just need to be respected in the context of your goals. Generally...

    BOTL Weight Loss Thread

    I grew up playing sports and was raised to eat pretty well but somewhere along the line I let my personal habits go to hell. Beer and wings became a regular staple along side chicken alfredo dinners and foods alike each time I got hungry. I wasn't eating enough and when I did I ate like shit, a...

    Sabor de Chattanooga. Wish it had more strength but still a nice smoke.

    If it were me I'd eat the baked beans and balance out the rest of your meals that day. If I can eat 2 Big Macs on penny Big Mac day and still hit all my macros/cal intake then I know it can be done. Cut back on the other carb sources like beer, corn, potatoes, etc and you'll stay on point. The...

    Awesome to see this thread! I was going to start a spring/summer shred thread for exactly this. I'll post up what I'm doing diet/routine wise and some progress pics later when I have some more time.

    Their videos need a lot of work but watching them live is a real treat. Their album is also well produced. This one is sort of a smooth jazz take on their song Candela. Normally they have a horn section.

    I bet Xperimento or Suenalo would be nice music for a cigar rolling video. The sticks look great by the way.

    Homebrewers - Whats Fermenting?

    Must be nice having that much variety on hand. When you consider mixed fermentations the options are practically endless.

    FDA SHIRTS

    I wish things with this situation were more clear. If some of the sources are right and this isn't the nightmare it's being portrayed to be then we're really not doing ourselves any favors with this kind of stuff. On the other hand it's not like the FDA doesn't deserve the scrutiny. I do like...

    Would you say the Criollo viso has about the same thickness as their Corojo viso?

    Adventures in home rolling

    How thick was the viso? I don't want something too thick since the Corojo ligero is already heavy stuff. I had a bit of the LO Nica ligero I thought was pretty thin. Comparable to WLTs Corojo seco or viso. Good just lacking strength. I really love WLTs criollo ligero so I was hoping the seco was...

    Seed or soil?

    FWIW the Corojo Jalapa they showed me at El Titan smelled a lot like the stuff we all have. Sweet cedar and pepper. Good leaf and bad leaf are different things I can't argue that but I don't think it hurts trying to become familiar with the characteristics of different tobacco varietals. So it's...

    Seed or soil?

    Sounds like you've got it right. Basically how the 2 vendors have them labeled is how people reference them. For the bit of overlap you'll see "LO" or "WLT" thrown in to specify.

    What are people's thoughts on WLTs Criollo 98 seco in comparison to the ligero? Still really flavorful? How thick and how's the leaf size? I've been liking corojo seco paired with criollo ligero and was thinking of reversing the blend to use up some Corojo ligero I have.

    So good. I really hope these stick around and the blend doesn't get messed with.
